What towns did the cattle trails and the railroads intersect to form cattle shipping centers?
The cattle trails and railroads intersected in towns such as Abilene, Kansas; Dodge City, Kansas; and Cheyenne, Wyoming to form cattle shipping centers during the late 19th century.

Cattle trails tended to begin in south Texas because this region provided ample grazing lands and mild climate for cattle to thrive.

Many of the large cattle barons lived in the south, many in the state of Texas.

Once at their destination the cattle were sold and loaded into rail cars to be taken to other cities, usually in the east.
What is the difference between the highlands lowlands and uplands of Scotland?
Scotland has three major land regions: The Highlands A rugged, barren region that covers the northern 2/3 of Scotland. There are two major mountain ranges, the Northwest Highlands and the Grampian Mountains rise in this region. The ranges have parallel ridges that run through the Highlands from northeast to southwest. A deep valley called Glen Mor or the Great Glen separates the two mountain ranges. The highest peak in the British Isle is 4406 feet (1343 meters). Ben Nevis, rises south of Glen Mor. The Highlands have two kinds of valleys. Steep, narrow glens and broad, rolling straths. Much of the land in the Highlands is a treeless area called a moor or a heath. The most rugged land lies along the west coast. Most Highlanders live on the narrow coastal plains. The Central Lowlands The valleys of the Rivers Clyde, Fourth, and Tay cross the Central Lowlands. This region has Scotland's best farmland. Wide, fertile fields and low hills with patches of trees cover the entire region. About three-fourths of Scottish people live in the lowlands.

Many sheep and cattle are raised in the southern uplands. In the south, the uplands rise to the Cheviot Hills.
